My visual language focuses on telling stories of a longing for something that has been lost while discovering the otherness that lingers within us. Alternating between rawness and sensuality indicates my aesthetic approach that is wrapped in haptics of human bodies. During my training years I learnt directing i.a. from Jessica Hausner, Michael Haneke and Wolfgang Murnberger. Years of experience in contemporary dance complete my methods of working with actors.
